07:58.25mad_adyhello everybody. I am a newbie with handhelds and familiar. I have a question, if I may...
07:58.30mad_adyI have a fujitsu-siemens n560 pda and I managed to get a linux kernel to boot on the device.
07:58.36mad_adyI also have a minimal (busybox) root filesystem.
07:58.42mad_ady<PROTECTED>
07:58.48mad_adycould you point me in the right direction? (what do I need, where do I get it?)
07:58.53mad_adythank you...
08:08.16r00t|ipaqno howto or manual fcr that device?
08:08.34mad_adysorry?
08:08.44mad_adyare you replying to me?
08:08.56r00t|ipaqpositive
08:09.20mad_adywell, I bearly managed to get a working linux kernel, because my pda is not officially supported
08:09.53mad_adyand the original developer only managed to get the kernel to start, and to connect to the device through telnet via the cradle
08:10.13mad_adyI want to go the extra mile and try to install a graphical environment
08:10.29mad_adyI figure I first have to install ipkg - but what happens then?
08:10.41r00t|ipaqi'd just copy cver a familiar roct image nd try to boct it
08:10.58mad_adyI'm not sure if familiar also comes with the kernel, or is just a set of packages
08:11.00r00t|ipaqno installing
08:11.07r00t|ipaqno installing ipkg
08:11.14mad_adyso the root file system should do it...
08:11.30mad_adyit's crazy enough to work! :)
08:11.33mad_adythanks for the tip
08:11.44mad_adyshould I get the latest familiar image?
08:11.45r00t|ipaqthe core system comes as a preinstalled image
08:12.10mad_adyyes, but this image also contains the kernel, right?
08:12.12*** join/#handhelds djcloudy (n=djcloudy@ip72-201-3-17.ph.ph.cox.net)
08:12.21r00t|ipaqthe one that works for you
08:12.34r00t|ipaqnot necessarily
08:12.38mad_adyaha
08:12.44mad_adyok
08:12.48r00t|ipaqor rather, no
08:12.56mad_adycan you point me where I can download a familiar image without the kernel?
08:13.04mad_ady(as I said, I'm new to this)
08:13.09djcloudycan someone please give me some tips? I have a PPP connection established with my iPaq 3700 series running latest versions of familiar and opie, trying to get internet connectivity to update!
08:13.25r00t|ipaqthe kernel natunally has to be loaded _before_ the root
08:14.04mad_adyyes, I agreee
08:14.15mad_adyand it loads, but my rootfs is minimal
08:14.17r00t|ipaqmad_ady: qven if there is a kernel on the root, it's just a dead file
08:14.30mad_adyaha
08:14.32mad_adyI see.
08:14.37mad_adythanks!
08:14.44mad_adyI'll give it a try
08:14.45r00t|ipaqmad_ady: modules might be an issue tho'
08:15.04mad_adyluckaly the kernel I'm using has everything compiled into it
08:15.06mad_adyno modules
08:15.27mad_adynaturally I expect I'll run into troubles with other things, but it's a start
08:15.33mad_adyI have another question
08:15.48mad_adyis this image a type of ext2 partition image?
08:15.52mad_adycan I mount it?
08:15.56r00t|ipaqsorry, i'm on the way to work on my first day, i really shouldnt be ircing ;)
08:16.13r00t|ipaqno, its jffs2...
08:16.39r00t|ipaqto be flashed onto a mtd flash device
08:16.54mad_adyok
08:17.00mad_adythanks for the help
08:17.15mad_adyI'm looking for a ext2 image, so I can start it with my existing kernel
08:17.19mad_adyI'll keep searching
08:17.21r00t|ipaqgood luck getting
08:17.26mad_adygood luck with your job!
08:17.39r00t|ipaqit to worg
08:17.40r00t|ipaqk
08:17.53mad_ady10x
08:18.42r00t|ipaqdjcloudy: no usbnet on that model?
08:18.50r00t|ipaqppp is easy
08:19.03djcloudyI don't think so, I'm downloading the .ipk file now to try and install it locally over serial
08:19.12djcloudymaybe that will work
08:19.24r00t|ipaq<--- ppp over bluetooth over gprs, sitting in a tram
08:19.29djcloudylol
08:19.35mad_adyhttp://onut.net/index2.php?option=com_content&do_pdf=1&id=42
08:19.39mad_adyfound something for me
08:19.40djcloudyI'm waiting for my wireless card to arrive
08:19.42mad_adywill keep reading
08:19.49djcloudyand will prolly get a bluetooth as well
08:20.01djcloudyonce I get the memplug expansion pack workin with linux
08:20.10djcloudybut thats a whole different issue I'm not trying to get into yet
08:20.11djcloudylol
08:20.29djcloudycan I get internet connectivity over the ppp connection?
08:20.30r00t|ipaqh2200, bought it for its builtin bt
08:20.39r00t|ipaqsure
08:21.08djcloudyI'm not sure what I'm missing, I setup the connection in Windows and it says connected
08:21.26r00t|ipaqi will be 5mins late... damn busses...
08:21.50r00t|ipaqdjcloudy: defaultroute and routing
08:22.06r00t|ipaqdjcloudy: i dont support windows
08:22.21r00t|ipaqdjcloudy: maybe google ics
08:23.22djcloudyyeah, I've read everything available on that, unfortunately
08:23.23djcloudy<PROTECTED>
08:23.34djcloudyI'll have to try it when I get back home
08:23.52djcloudybut I figured I could somehow masquerade with the ppp connection in windows
08:24.25r00t|ipaquse a http proxy
08:24.35djcloudyhm
08:26.02djcloudywell, I got usbnet installed on the ipaq no prob
08:26.09djcloudylets see if this changes anything
08:26.47r00t|ipaqlol
08:30.09djcloudygah!!!
08:30.18djcloudyno luck
08:31.05djcloudyI didn't think I would need any configuration on the ipaq side to sync with qtopia
08:33.56bluelightningdjcloudy: for syncing you will need to allow the PC's IP address in the security settings
08:34.15djcloudybluelightning: I have it currently set to allow from all IP ranges
08:34.49djcloudybluelightning: I also have it set to sync with qtopia 1.7 under securty config
08:35.02bluelightningdjcloudy: that should be OK then
08:36.12djcloudybluelightning: what about my usbf or usb0 configurations? do I need to setup anything special there? They are set to dhcp right nw
08:36.50bluelightningdjcloudy: I'm not sure if dhcp will work... it would then need a dhcp server listening on the other side
08:37.02bluelightningjust a static address should be fine
08:37.11djcloudyyeh. ok, how about the gw and dns?
08:37.13bluelightningeg. 192.168.0.202 (which is the default AFAIK)
08:37.50bluelightningdefault gateway should probably be the same as whatever the gateway is on your PC
08:37.59bluelightningdns, same there too
08:38.12djcloudyk
08:38.21bluelightningif your PC is doing forwarding correctly then you should be able to ping those addresses from the ipaq

18:01.14lorenzoZzZhi all, is someone here?
18:01.43pH5~seen someone
18:01.45ibotsomeone <n=jegerher@ti131310a340-2367.bb.online.no> was last seen on IRC in channel #wowhead, 30d 16h 13m 8s ago, saying: ' '< sushi'.
18:02.31lorenzoZzZok, excuse me.... i was looking for some help
18:02.55lorenzoZzZthe correct question is: Is here someone who may help me?
18:03.22pH5lorenzoZzZ: depends on your problem, I guess.
18:03.23lorenzoZzZi'm tring to boot familiar on my handheld
18:04.18lorenzoZzZ<PROTECTED>
18:06.48lorenzoZzZi'm googling but nothing about this version of iPAQ. I think that is a Frankstein HandHeld. The Brand is Compaq but the HW is XDA.... am i right?
18:07.01pH5lorenzoZzZ: this is the first time I hear about that device
18:07.42lorenzoZzZone moment. i will post the url with a photo
18:07.50pH5lorenzoZzZ: but this is not unusual, HTC builds a lot of handheld devices that are sold under completely different brand names
18:09.55lorenzoZzZPh5: ok. the builder of this phone is HTC or XDA? http://www.dbelectronics.it/public/images/FA777AT.jpg
18:10.11pH5maybe somebody on #htc-linux knows if somebody has already worked on this.
18:10.30pH5heh, this looks similar to htc magician. is it 2.8"?
18:10.30lorenzoZzZok, i'll join that channel
18:10.43pH5I think Xda is just a brand name used by O2.
18:10.49pH5the devices are produced by HTC.
18:11.08lorenzoZzZi'm italian... not so familiar with inches.... it's about 10 cm
18:11.27lorenzoZzZthe brand on the phone is HP
18:13.09pH5lorenzoZzZ: I meant the screen size. somehow I'm just used to inches there.

18:16.31lorenzoZzZi'm tring to boot with haret 3.7 but nothing... with haret 3.6 i see the tux, the eyes go red and then the system hangs up
18:17.21pH5lorenzoZzZ: ah, now I see why I didn't know this device. it's not by htc after all, but initially developed by O2 in cooperation with quanta.
18:17.47pH5lorenzoZzZ: as it runs on a pxa272 processor, it should be possible/not too hard to port linux to it, but I don't think there is any support available yet.
